WebRacer dedicated web surfing "phone accessory"
One usually thinks of the accessories to a device as being smaller complements to the main show, but the Planon WebRacer dedicated web surfing device is intended as the big sibling for your cellphone. It's billed as a "mini laptop" that basically adds a larger screen and QWERTY keyboard to your phone du jour. It hooks into your mobile via Bluetooth to glom onto its GPRS connection and get online action for the VGA 640 x 480 pixel color display. It's supposed to be a happy compromise between laptop and smartphone, but it seems more like a $270 kludge. Any convenience this device might provide is likely going to be outweighed by the inconvenience of having to carry it around along with your phone.
